Who We Are

Fuel Fighter is a technical student organization at NTNU working with the goal of making the world's most energy efficient electric car. For 13 years we have been competing in the world's leading student competition on energy efficiency, the Shell Eco Marathon. With several accomplishments through the years, we are always competing for the first place in the Urban Concept battery electric class, as well as challenging the communication, innovation and design awards. The last two years we have also started developing an autonomous system for the car, for competing in the Shell Eco Marathon Autonomous competition.

About us

Welcome to Fuel Fighter, a technical student organization at NTNU dedicated to designing and producing the world's most energy-efficient electric car. For over 13 years, we've been competing in the Shell Eco Marathon, the world's leading student competition on energy efficiency. Our team is comprised of more than 40 students from various fields of study at NTNU, including engineering, business, and design. We also have exchange students from countries like Spain, Germany, and France, adding an international dimension to our team.


Our goal is to create sustainable solutions that promote energy efficiency and innovation. We're constantly striving to improve our designs and techniques to produce the most efficient electric car possible. Our primary focus is the Urban Concept battery electric class, where we aim to achieve the highest energy efficiency possible. We also compete in other categories, including communication, innovation, and design awards.

"inspire for a                     
              sustainable future"

UN Sustainable Development Goals

Our motto is “inspire for a sustainable future”. We want to show that working on a project can be done with an environmental mindset, and that the electric car is the future. With more focus on energy efficiency, electric cars can increase their range a lot more than what current models can achieve. To help stop the climate changes within 2030, we focus our work around seven of UN’s 17 sustainable development goals.

Our Impact

Inspire a sustainable future

We optimize the car to let it be the most energy efficient as possible.

Connecting students

We connect students from various engineering and business disciplines and create a network.

Developing innovative technology

We inspire for new, innovative technology for electric cars.

At Fuel Fighter, we believe that teamwork and hands-on experience are crucial for success. We design and produce almost everything on our car ourselves, including PCB design, 3D modeling, and composite work. The students run every aspect of the organization, from financials and sponsorships to marketing and general organizational work. We're proud to offer our members the opportunity to develop practical skills that will be useful in their future careers. Joining Fuel Fighter is an excellent way to gain hands-on experience, develop your teamwork and leadership skills, and contribute to a crucial cause. Whether you're an engineering student or have a passion for sustainability, we welcome all students who share our vision for a greener future. We're excited to work together to create change, one kilometer at a time
